Initial chatter about major Sony surprises and a BIG revolution in the camera industry!

The Oracle rumors:

Guys, after two weeks of intense stress, I’m back to 100% on SAR. In my next posts, I’ll publish some reliable rumors, but today I want to give you two “cryptic” messages from my most reliable sources:

  1. From mid-2026 to 2027, Sony is expected to launch a major offensive. It will be much more exciting than the 2024-2025 period. Sony has been preparing for this for some time! We will share more details about this in the coming months!
  2. There’s a real REVOLUTION coming. I know the details, but I’ve been asked to keep my mouth shut until I get the green light. It’s something that will shake up the entire industry.

I am working on both those big “Oracle” rumors and can’t wait until sources feel safe for me to post them. I know you hate these kinds of vague hints, but I’m excited and hope that other reliable sources will share more information after reading this article!

Now to solid rumors:

There are five weeks to go until CP+, but Sony will probably NOT announce any new cameras yet. We will definitely see some new lenses, including the 100-400mm f/4.0 GM, the 100-400mm G, and the 18-26mm f/2.0 GM. So if you are on the fence for a new camera you might be a bit disappointed. Still, like I told you today there are great camera coming with some new tech. So be patient and stay always tuned on SAR ;)
